A face mask should be used once or twice a week to keep your skin soft, supple and looking great. A mask is made so you can simply apply it to your skin and wait. As it dries, you will feel your face tighten. This is how you can tell that the mask is doing its job correctly. Leave the mask on for 10-30 minutes and then rinse with cool or lukewarm water and a washcloth if necessary. Once you’ve washed your face, be sure to add your favorite moisturizer to replenish your skin’s hydration.
You should use a mask that has deep cleansing and moisturizing properties to get a deep clean face without drying it out. This will also help you get rid of oily buildup and stubborn dirt, helping to reduce or even eliminate acne. The mask will help you remove dead skin to bring younger, healthier skin cells to the surface. A mask will also help to tighten the skin and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
